Paul, Apostle of Christ is slated to be released from AFFIRM Films, a division of Sony, and ODB Films, in 2018. It began shooting in Malta recently, Variety reported.

The "inspirational drama" will tell the story of St. Paul, who went "from the most infamous persecutor[s] of Christians to Christ's most influential apostle," according to the producers' description.

It will take place primarily during Paul's last days, when he was imprisoned and about to be executed.

James Faulkner of Downton Abbey and Game of Thrones will play Paul.

"Paul changed from murdering Christians to becoming their unlikely leader. His life personifies 'forgiveness,' a concept that seems almost impossible today – but [is] desperately needed," said Producer T.J. Berden.

Before he was called Paul, he was Saul and breathed "murderous threats" against the disciples of Jesus, according to the Bible (Acts 9:1).
